He does run beside when im walking somewhere but trust me I have my guard up and I always have a cane in between us. I've read several things up on that. And he'll jump...

    Let me clear up the confusion of my message lol. My cat and stray cat are both females. My cat (buttercup) is a house cat but does go out from time to time.

    Stray cat

    The babies (1 hen and 1 Mr Roo lol) were all in the house together for 8 weeks. My dog would go up to their playpen and roo would look up and ignore him. Kept eating. When he attacked my dog, Toby (dog-10 yrs old) was about 15-20 ft away just laying in the grass watching me and Roo was laying...

    Stray cat

    There has been a stray cat that has wondered here (38 acres probably dropped off). NONE of my chickens bother her. When I give them treats, she eats with them and everything is great.

    My 5 month old rooster keeps attacking my dog

    I would never let harm come to anyone. If I see he doesn't get thru this phase, I will rehome him. Thanks

    My 5 month old rooster keeps attacking my dog

    It was middle of winter in KY and the weather was in the single digits for the most part. I dont have a brooding hen so I was afraid to leave them out there even with the heat I have. I agree, I feel so sorry for him, but this evening I went out and walked around with my big girls like I do...

    My 5 month old rooster keeps attacking my dog

    I've had 2 other roo's. They both died doing their job. This roo is the 1st 1 I've hatched. Only 2 made it. Him and a hen. They stayed in house for 8 weeks, then to coop. Separated in coop for 2 weeks. Then free range all of them. The hens (R.I.R.) all 5, immediately went after him. Not her. So...

    My 5 month old rooster keeps attacking my dog

    I have 5 other hens, but he runs from them. He wont go anywhere near them. I've managed to stop the biting. Now, he just runs along beside me but a few feet apart. Should I continue to try and work with him?

    My 5 month old rooster keeps attacking my dog

    Mary, How do you teach yours to move away at all times? I hatched these 2 and got 1 rooster. They both had ro sleep on the arm of my chair every night. Now, he'll come up and bite me. I read, he was looking at me as part of his pack. He's stopped doing that but now he stands in between me and...

    Hen won't let rooster mount OTHER hens

    I recently added a year old rooster to my 9 mos old hens (6 of them). They ran him for about a month and he finally started getting them in line a couple at a time. At times I had to go get the hens off him cuz I thought they were going to kill him. He now has all them in line. Only problem I'm...
